Blue Jays 4, Royals 3

KANSAS CITY, Mo. — Devon Travis homered in the ninth, his second of the game, to break a tie and lift the Blue Jays. Travis led off the game with a home run, then ripped a 1-and-2 pitch in the ninth from Kelvin Herrera into the Royals bullpen for his first career multihomer game. Francisco Liriano made his first start with the Jays after being acquired in a trade Monday with Pittsburgh and yielded three runs, seven hits and two walks while striking out three.
